Mycophenolate mofetil lowers your body's immune system. The immune system helps
your body fight infections. The immune system can also fight or "reject" a transplanted organ
such as a liver or kidney. This is because the immune system treats the new organ as an invader.
Mycophenolate mofetil is used to prevent your body from rejecting a kidney, liver, or
heart transplant. This medication is usually given with cyclosporine (Sandimmune, Neoral) and a
steroid medication.
Mycophenolate mofetil may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication
guide.
